Hi Team, You may have noticed that I have been furiously updating the content in the wiki (http://wiki.metalforge.net/doku.php). I have added a new section called "the sworn book of scorn" which is designed to be a reasonably detailed account of the way crossfire works without being a spoiler. I hope to make it useful to both new players and old players alike. Things like dumps from the archetypes would be useful but might crossover into spoilers so I haven't prioritised them. Aspects of game player that are described by code seem sensible items in this section. If anyone would like to help me read and interpret the code, I'd love some help! Come say hi on the IRC channel.
What i'm actually writing about is that whilst working on this documentation I have 'stumbled' on the dev sections of the wiki. What a mess! Given that the Monk was my creation I have decided to go down a similar path to improving crossfire and develop a new class and at the same time improve the skill missle_weapons. The new class is currently slated as 'rangers' which are loosely outlined here: http://wiki.metalforge.net/doku.php/dev_todo:cf2.0:classes. Is this where such progress should be documented? I wasn't certain, so I tidied up the Dev front page a little.. however a lot of the pages seem to have been superseded and I can't make head nor tail of which is which. Perhaps it is timely to remap the direction of the game? I'm happy to assist in anyway to merge, fix, delete, update any pages that should be. In, particular one area of Dev interests me which is the Cf2.0 documents (which seem to start here: http://wiki.metalforge.net/doku.php/dev_todo:cf2.0) A lot of the ideas in here are absolutely fantastic and I would love to see them in game. Some of them seem quite straight forward whilst others seem very complicated. Is much progress happening towards these? Sorry for the long winded email Saru
